On Hen I used to wear a tabard, but if you failed to miss that mass of white arse, you shouldn't be driving!
However I was in the car one morning (normal weather, neither bright and sunny, nor grey and miserable) and passed a lady riding a bay, head to toe in brown clothing. We didn't see her until we about 2ft away from her, luckily there was nothing coming the other way, so we missed her but it could have been far worse. The road has high hedges either side and she just blended in perfectly! It really highlighted to me how important Hi-Viz is.
So now with Mally, I have a tabard and she has leg wraps, we haven't even hacked yet! She has leg wraps on the basis that if I come off and she gallops down the road, I'd like cars not to hit my precious pony, and I was told leg wraps are the most eye catching due to the flashing movement.
All in hot pink and matching of course
